Help with The Black Keep, partial TPK


Shattered Star


Greetings all, first time, long time.

I'm running a 6 person group through the Asylum stone, and they had more than a little trouble with the Black Keep. The Dark Rider beheaded 2 of the party. They decided "one more room", and lost their Wizard to Olanna. Again they went "one more room", and the last three party members went down, but are stable.
I don't want to wipe the party, the group likes their PC's and is willing to raise the dead. The Monk and Dark Naga that the Librarians hired are still alive and in the Library, I was thinking of having the Caulborn contact the library and tell them they think something is wrong and they need reinforcements. They have already killed Olanna, the Dark Rider, and the simulacrum from Eox. Two of the party are in service to Calistria, so she could lend some aid to get them on their feet. Thoughts?


For a group that like their PC, they are certainly too eager to push forward with half the group edad...

Which class are the survivors? Any one coukd read raise dead scrolls?

An agent of Calistria sounds as the best bet


The three "survivors" are: (and oh, I'm converting this to D&D 5th edition as I go, so these are D&D classes.)

8th level Human Valor Bard.
8th level Champion fighter.
6th level Monk/2nd level Warlock of Calistria (Fey pact.)


I guess I could give the rest of the party for completeness.

8th level Dwarven fighter (currently headless.)
4th Ranger/3 Rogue/1 Cleric of Calistria (headless)
7th level wizard.


I think that having an agent of Calistria would be fine, especially because you could use them to give them a stern talking to. like "they went down and you STILL decided to keep going instead of recovering? What's wrong with you?!" to hopefully keep TPKs from happening again.
